  • UK ENGLAND CUMBRIA SELLAFIELD 1JUN06 - Two seagulls stand atop an old water bowser near BNFL's Selllafield Nuclear Reprocessing facility on the Irish Sea coast. The facility houses two types of nuclear installations. Firstly, four reactors located at Calder Hall together with their associated facilities are concerned with the generation of electricity and steam for consumption on the Sellafield site and feeding electricity into the National Grid. The second facility, comprising several hundred buildings is associated with the treatment and storage of radioactive wastes, and the reprocessing of irradiated nuclear fuel arising from the UK nuclear power programme and from overseas reactors under commercial contracts negotiated by BNFL...jre/Photo by Jiri Rezac..© Jiri Rezac 2006..Contact: +44 (0) 7050 110 417.Mobile:  +44 (0) 7801 337 683.Office:  +44 (0) 20 8968 9635..Email:   jiri@jirirezac.com.Web:    www.jirirezac.com..© All images Jiri Rezac 2006 - All rights reserved.

  • NORWAY LOFOTEN 29MAR07 - Stockfish racks in Hamnoy on the Lofoten islands.<br />
<br />
North-East Arctic Cod have played an important role on the islands for thousands of years. At home north of the Arctic Circle, the fish come from the Barents Sea to Lofoten in early January to spawn by the tens of millons. January also marks the beginning of the fishing season, which lasts until the end of March, during which some 25000 guest fishermen join forces with about 3000 who live on the islands permanently - together they catch about 35000 tons of cod.<br />
<br />
The drying of food is the world's oldest known preservation method, and dried fish has a storage life of several years. Beside oil and gas, sun-dried stockfish is Norway's longest sustained and historically most profitable export commodity, as it is extremely popular and widely consumed in Catholic Mediterranean countries, notably Portugal, Spain and Italy. It also remains part of the national cuisines of the Caribbean, having arrived there with the so-called triangular trade during colonial times.<br />

  • CANADA ALBERTA FORT MCMURRAY 10MAY07 - Aerial view of Suncor storage area north of Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada. The Alberta Tar Sands are the largest deposits of their kind in the world and their production is the single largest contributor to Canada's greenhouse gas emissions.<br />
<br />
Alberta's tar sands are currently estimated to contain a crude bitumen resource of 315 billion barrels, with remaining established reserves of almost 174 billion barrels, thus making Canada's oil resources ranked second largest in the world in terms of size.<br />
<br />
The industry has brought wealth and an economic boom to the region but also created an environmental disaster downstream from the Athabasca river, polluting the lakes where water and fish are contaminated. The native Indian tribes of the Mikisew, Cree, Dene and other smaller First Nations are seeing their natural habitat destroyed and are largely powerless to stop or slow down the rapid expansion of the oil sands development, Canada's number one economic driver.<br />

  • CANADA ALBERTA FORT MCMURRAY 20JUL09 - Aerial view of a storage tank at the Suncor upgrader site in the Boreal forest north of Fort McMurray, northern Alberta, Canada.<br />
<br />
The tar sand deposits lie under 141,000 square kilometres of sparsely populated boreal forest and muskeg and contain about 1.7 trillion barrels of bitumen in-place, comparable in magnitude to the world's total proven reserves of conventional petroleum. Current projections state that production will  grow from 1.2 million barrels per day (190,000 m³/d) in 2008 to 3.3 million barrels per day (520,000 m³/d) in 2020 which would place Canada among the four or five largest oil-producing countries in the world.<br />
